CGiii Comment

How grim is Canada?

Very - according to this grubby indictment.

Yeah, yeah Mr Geary - we all know that you have to make a drugs movie to further your career, it's a kudos thang - but why make one that is so similar to 99% of all the others?

It's all been done before - every generation has to throw up its 8,000 drug dramas.

Tiresome.
